Agency Help

On Tuesday, August 21stfrom 10:00am to 1:00pm, I’ll be hosting a veterans benefit expo at the Cultural Center at Willow Valley – that’s at 900 Willow Valley Square.

I’ll be in attendance, as well as members of my staff, and staff from the Coatesville and Lebanon Veterans Affairs hospitals to enroll veterans for health benefits and answer questions about services offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs. We’ll also be providing information about home-based primary care, physical rehabilitation services, suicide prevention, and there will be a live demonstration of the VA’s Telehealth Service.

If you are a veteran, or know a veteran, who could benefit from this information, I hope to see you on Tuesday! Please feel free to call my Lancaster office with any questions: 717-393-0667.
